PANIC!! 1L Fall Grade Waiting Thread - 2012 Forum

[FranklinSims]

Just heard from a student I mentored Fall Semester at Loyola Law School. Lowest grade A- and highest grade A+* (in 2012 Loyola inflated their GPAs). Anyway, congrats to her! With that sort of grade in criminal law she will make a great criminal...

Just a PSA: People who do great are outrageously more likely to post about it, mention it on facebook, drop it in casual conversation, raise their hands in class 2nd semester, and generally be annoying asshats.

Now there's absolutely nothing wrong with cheering each other on and posting about your success in this thread, and y'all aren't being asshats - that's whatthis thread is for. But (a) brace yourselves generally for the fact that the top 10% of the class will from here on out do 90% of the posting/talking/mutual masturbating about grades and (b) be very carefully about assuming "everyone in this thread is killing it, wow everyone on TLS is killing it!"

Yeah, I posted here because I wanted to vent , staying tight lipped about it to classmates (generic, "I am happy with the grades" to people who ask). Starting over fresh this semester, going to act/prepare as if I was below median and have to catch up.

Thanks everybody. Especially the exam prep thread people, you guys helped a ton.

Just for fun, I decided to figure out who you were. Alas, turns out I don't know you. (Although I did figure out who you were).

Just out of curiosity, are a lot of schools using A+s now?

[Birdnals]

Nice job bro. Are you using the new grading system? I love how 88 and 89 are now A-, and 95+ is A+, gotta love grade inflation.

Yup, 98, 94, and 89 respectively. Gotta love being able to claim straight A's with an 89. Also helps for ranking that I was in a section with profs that gave out a wide ranges of grades. I know in some sections the top grade in multiple classes was a 94. That would suck to have done everything right and get fucked like that.

Haha yea, for sure. I'm at A+, A- and waiting on torts. I'm at the lower end of the ranges tho, so not quite as high of a GPA as yours. It's hard to complain about it, but I got the second highest grade in con law for a 95. Thanks wash u for making that an A+ but it sucks to nearly Cali a class for a 95. Loved magarian, but damn brah bump up that distribution. Either way, great job and congrats on the success.

You too!

[TheZoid]

Thanks bro, hoping for some love in torts and I could be in great shape.

Subtle opening shot in scholarship-hike negotiations. Respect.

[soj]

That's still subtlebragging. I would have respected him if he said he was thinking of dropping out.

[gaud]

fuaarrkkk.

Looks like I'm gonna get medianpwned with my last grade.

[Tiago Splitter]

That's still subtlebragging. I would have respected him if he said he was thinking of dropping out.

Or gone the other way and said he's looking for some early odds on whether he'll become Valedictorian.

This is why I don't post anything about law school on Facebook.

Please, that's not even subtle

TBF, that means before classes. Unless they decided not to list all the possibilities/

3L friend just got one of his grades (after his exam # was posted yesterday). Also heard that one of the 1L small sections got their torts grade. So looks like it's starting...

Franklin, that's amazing! She was lucky to have you as a mentor. How did she get so lucky??? How many mentees do you take on? Are your methods easy to grasp? Are there any hot babes you mentor that you might be able to hook me up with? Thanks bro.
